Andrew Lang broke Ewings wrist and PJ Brown flung Charlie Ward into the 5th row leading to playoff suspensions for Ewing, Houston, LJ, and Starks. But not even they got the hate Embiid is getting.
Guess the lesson is you have to be great to get all the hate. – 1:26 PM

If Joel Embiid, who missed shootaround this morning with a migraine, can’t go for the Sixers tonight in Game 5?

Bobby Marks asked Zach Lowe if he’d extend Embiid as the Sixers… even called it “the million dollar question.” Lowe countered “he might be the best player in the nba, 2nd best…” 🤣🤣🤣
can’t help but wonder if Bobby would attach a few picks to him for KG tmrw pic.twitter.com/W5fsInp7SG – 5:12 PM

“(PHI was) trying to run a direct post-up to Embiid…Maxey is about 32 feet from the rim & Embiid is forced out to 17 feet…almost fronted….The feeder is jammed & the catcher is all covered up. Just outworking them.”

The Sixers defense allows 46% of shots in the paint with Joel Embiid on the floor, which increases to 64% with Paul Reed at center. The Knicks are attacking at will when Embiid is out of the game. pic.twitter.com/pzZvDVfKs5 – 2:40 PM

They’ll have to dig their way out of this hole victory by victory, starting Tuesday when Joel Embiid will be greeted by waves of vitriol in the Garden. “One at a time. We know we’re good enough,” said Embiid. “[Sunday] we didn’t make shots, so we’ve just got to keep trusting ourselves,” -via New York Post / April 29, 2024
